Appreciated guys, and I would normally buy private but unfortunately I am buying on finance and the company conditions is that its from a trader, 55 plate or newer and has done less than 100k, the max i can spend is 7k, my question really was about the 2.0 wrx vs the 2.5 wrx as shown in the examples

Could you not save up and buy the car YOU want rather than a car the finance company want you to own ?

Or just get a loan. You will be paying a grand more form a dealer.
